Facts About Motility Disorders What are Motility Disorders? Motility disorders refer to abnormal intestinal contractions, such as spasms and intestinal paralysis, that can result in the inability to eat (which may require patients to receive intravenous nutrition) and severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, maldigestion, weight loss, diarrhea, constipation and incontinence. Motility Disorders encompass a variety of conditions, including: gastroparesis; achalasia; gastroesophageal reflux disease; chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction; constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. Irritable bowel syndrome, the most common of the disorders, results in pain and diminished quality of life for nearly 15 percent of this country's population. Rarer and more serious disorders produce excruciating pain and make it impossible to eat or digest food. Below is a listing and short description of some of the most serious and bothersome motility disorders and digestive diseases. Gastroparesis This is a disorder of the stomach where it fails to empty food properly. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, weight loss and loss of appetite. It commonly occurs in patients with diabetes, or in patients with scleroderma or lupus. However, it may also occur after a viral or bacterial illness.

59. Digestive Disorders: How To Beat The #1 Health Complaint HOW TO BEAT THE 1 HEALTH COMPLAINT AROUND THE WORLD digestive disorders. Medical Researchers, Scientists and Doctors have uncovered http://www.relfe.com/digestive_disorders.html

home page HOW TO BEAT THE #1 HEALTH COMPLAINT AROUND THE WORLD: DIGESTIVE DISORDERS Medical Researchers, Scientists and Doctors have uncovered a completely natural way to balance the digestive system ... to combat malabsorption of nutrients, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, bladder infections, allergies, chronic fatigue, cancer and a whole lot more. Improvement takes days not years! Better health starts with better digestion. It's pretty simple when you think about it. You eat and drink, digest the nutrients, and they spread throughout your body. But if you're not digesting efficiently, even a nutritious diet may not provide what you need to build energy, stay fit, and bolster your immune system to fight disease, including cancer. Years of research by noted Scientists, Medical Researchers and Doctors around the world have discovered that much of what ails us begins with poor digestion. Studies in Great Britain show that toxins in our GI tract may be behind 90% of all chronic illnesses! But studies also show that there is good news for people who experience chronic fatigue, frequent diarrhea and gas, constipation, bloating, leaky gut syndrome, chronic bladder infections, allergies, food sensitivities, vaginal infections and even high cholesterol. These scientific breakthroughs are in an area called PROBIOTICS. Probiotics are essentially `good' bacteria that maintain a proper balance in the digestive system, minimizing or eliminating the growth of `bad' bacteria. This is explained in simple, understandable terms inside this important newsletter. It is vital to your health that you read it.
